At the beginning of October, the 35-year-old star published a video of herself at an autograph session to mark the publication of her new book.

The musician wore a glittering mesh mask, through which her face was clearly recognizable.

Lana defended the extravagant face mask on Twitter: "The mask had plastic on the inside," she wrote, sharing an article on the controversy.

But even this explanation did not seem to convince some fans.

One user responded to her Lana's clarification by writing, "You cannot breath through plastic. And if you CAN breath through your plastic mask then it's efficacy against COVID is incredibly compromised. But, you tried."

Others accused her of causing unnecessary controversy or straight up lying.
